libdmftest is a library for playing DMF modules + assorted audio player plugins. Plays "Free minds at trancentral" and about 350 other songs! The DMF format was created by D-Lusion in the mid-1990s to save songs written in X-Tracker. It was one of the less popular PC tracker formats, but it did gain some following in Germany for a year or two.
If you don't know what the preceding paragraph means, libdmftest probably isn't for you.
This isn't really a readme, but more of a quick guide to the different subprojects within libdmftest. Here's what's available:
* foo_input_dmftest = A libdmftest plugin for foobar2000.
* libdmftest = The library itself. See docs/readme.txt for information on how to use libdmftest in your application.
* test_app = A very simple application demonstrating how to use libdmftest.
Can be used for playing back DMF files if you're in a pinch.
Also, there is a top-level Visual Studio solution for building test_app. If you're having trouble working libdmftest into your own solution, you can se this as a reference.
Requirements:
Visual Studio 2005 or newer is required to open the projects and solution. f you're on a Windows platform, you can obtain a free version of Visual Studio (called "Visual Studio Express") from microsoft.com. You will be required to get a Passport account and register it if you would like to use it for more than 30 days, but it should be serviceable in the meantime.
Currently, there is no official support for non-Windows platforms. There is no makefile available and there are no plugins for non-Windows media players. That said, libdmftest itself is written entirely in C++ and has only a few standard library includes, so it should be possible to compile it on most any platform. If you'd like to use libdmftest on a different platform and you don't feel like waiting for an official makefile to be provided, just compile and link all of the .cpp files in the libdmftest directory. Take a look at libdmftest/src/config.h while you're at it
